What is one silver french franc worth?

The value of a silver French franc can vary based on several factors, including its silver content, condition, and market demand. Generally, a silver franc from the 19th or early 20th century contains about 0.9 ounces of silver. As of recent prices, the silver content itself might value the coin at around $20 to $25, but collectible or rare coins could fetch higher prices among numismatists. Always check current market rates for the most accurate valuation.


Is there silver in a 1960 1 Franc coin from Madagascar?

No. Copper-nickel. These circulated regularly until France adopted the euro in 2002. If your coin is from circulation it's worth less than a quarter. Correction: French francs from 1960-2000 are .999 nickel and as of 8/8/2012, nickel is trading at just over double the price of copper per pound, of which a U.S. quarter is made, so the melt value of a 1960 franc is over double the value of a quarter.

What is the value of a 1984 Helvetian Franc?

Helvetia is the national name for Switzerland. It's in Latin as a neutral term in a country that has four official languages. You need to be more specific about the coin's design. I cannot find any information regarding a triple-dated franc from 1974. In any case, Swiss francs issued since 1968 are struck in copper-nickel and are worth only face value, about 85¢ U.S.
